The Art of Trash
2012, presented by the Community Work Day Program and SharingAloha, will receive work
from artists on Saturday, April 14th at Maui Mall from 9:30am to 3pm. Entry fee
is $10 per piece.

The annual exhibit
showcases everyday objects that have been transformed and given new life.
Artists throughout Maui County continue to change the way the community defines
reuse by finding creative ways of keeping recyclable items out of our
landfill.

“Maui’s Art of
Trash has always had a playful energy and an underlying awareness of just how
serious a matter reuse and recycling can be,” said Ira Ono - founder, juror and
creator of the exhibit.

techniques,” said Wilma Nakamura, coordinator of the exhibition.

If you are an
artist who creates artwork from recycled materials, be sure to enter this juried
show. Please note that driftwood pieces, water feature pieces and works that
include food will NOT be accepted.
